To the right of the main entrance is a modern porch. The main section of the building has a tiled roof with coped verges and gable end chimneys, while an addition features pantiles, also with a coped verge and gable end chimney. At the rear, there are rubble extensions. The King's Arms Public House is part of a group that includes Nos 1 and 3 and Nos 2 and 4 Marsh Road.
